My First Big Blue Madness Exceeded Expectations

Related Topics: IBM, Madness (band)

I have something to admit: I was a Big Blue Madness hater.

My first experience ended horribly at the campout, leaving without tickets. I learned the event just might not be for me, vowing never to return. I did not learn that would change until late Thursday night, but I’m glad it did.

My biggest beef with BBM was, and still is the scrimmage. It’s not competitive. Even in person, it wasn’t entertaining. That could be fixed by adding a three point contest and a dunk contest. However, after sitting in the arena for the fist time, I finally understood why people love it so much.
